We all know that I am not much of a friend of comments, but sometimes leaving a comment may be helpful. Recently the community closed this question without any further explanation:
- https://german.stackexchange.com/questions/6248/how-do-i-say-the-following
- Is the following sentence, in terms of its adjectival declension, right?
Indeed, this was quite obviously not a good fit for our site as it was merely asking for seemingly random translations, or in the later case it lacked a specific question/issue.
But the OP of the question may not have been aware of this.
Should we in such cases leave a comment with at least linking to our FAQ before closing? Should we have asked for further details, or question improvements before close voting?
